Ok i know hydra and PD team abilities are the same so its a simple question.

H = Hydra
E = Enemy


XXHXX
XHHHX
XXXXX
XXXXX
XXEXX

ok so in that scenario. does the defence of the enemy drop by 3 or 2?
If CAP BAron Strucker is on the field i know the answer would be three, but without him the back line hydra guy doesnt have line of fire to the enemy bc of a front line hydra guy. I beleive it would only do a -2 to the defence of the enemy, but i am just looking for some clarification.


Hydra - When this character is adjacent to a friendly character making a rancged combat attack. Modify the targets defence value by -1 if the target is within line of fire of this character.

It would drop by -2, unless E was on elevated terrain and all of the H characters had a clear line of fire to E.

ty. thats what i was thinking, but just wanted to make sure

Slight add to WIT's comment, it would also be -3 if the enemy was a giant/colossal.
